In 2009, with the Greek debt crisis unfolding OSE's Management was forced to reduce services across the network. Timetables were cutback and routes closed, as the government-run entity attempted to reduce overheads.

In 2017 OSE's passenger transport sector was privatised as TrainOSE, currently a wholly owned subsidiary of Ferrovie dello Stato Italiane[5] infrastructure, including stations remained under the control of OSE. Since 6 May 2005 the station has been served by Proastiakos link between Athens and Chalcis.[2]
